Media Lab for innovative patriotic journalism

Young participants in the Media Lab will learn about Russian innovations in media and data journalism, gain experience working with new media formats like long reads, infographics and podcasts, and try their hand at photojournalism and social media blogging.

Experts from the Rossiya Segodnya media group – journalists, analysts, photojournalists, designers and PR strategists – will host workshops, seminars and public talks, both in person and online.

The Media Lab will hold quarterly sessions. The plan is to publish the best works created by the participants on a special page on ria.ru, the leading website of the Runet, which is part of the Rossiya Segodnya media group.
